exactly, and even that is the bare minimum

this isn't a rom-com

I'm not saying it's bad, it's just that it's not as good or fulfilling as LR or the other dramas I mentioned, I tried to just recommend you great rom-coms with super happy endings and no BS.

I felt the exact same way, people downplay LR as if it's easy to make a great rom-com, and as you saw a lot of them are just overhyped borefests, they fail to just remain a rom-com, they have to add so many other stuff and by the end the rom-com aspects of the drama gets lost, even Business Proposal which I loved had an underwhelming ending.

Dramas that I was very happy with their endings:

1.Twinkling watermelon
2. It's okay to not be okay (a little heavy at times but happy ending)
3.Put Your Head on My Shoulder (very happy)
4.Strong Woman Do Bong Soon (SML can be a little annoying at times but it's super happy)
5.The Secret Life of My Secretary

why isn't he in any new dramas?😭😭

yes

I'm still salty that this got cancelled😭😭

Nam Ji Hyun is in it = "plan to watch" 😍😍

just people that are jealous of LR's high rating and want to bring it down. if you haven't watched, I highly recommend it

their hatred has blinded them, I remember they were people here last year that were outright saying that they were hating on LR just because it was getting more praise than their fav drama at the time, some were QOT fans and sone were mentioning BL dramas that I'm not familiar with.

That's so true, they have zero argument so they just try to trash-talk about the drama's genre, like it's so easy to create such a magnificent rom-com, each year I watch so many rom-coms and almost 80% of them fail at being a rom-com, LR was quintessentially a perfect rom-com, it nailed the romance, it nailed the comedy, it had no annoying SML or stupid breakup for no reason out of the blue, it's time-travel wasn't a complete mess and it made sense in the context of the plot, they didn't try to absolve or overexplain the villain, and the leads were perfectly cast and had amazing chemistry, what more do these people want?

just look at Love next door, it failed at being a rom-com, if it was so easy why couldn't they do it?

Because the writer is trash, she destroyed the original source material and wasted such a great cast, there is no great meaning to be found in her writing and this drama, whatever issue you find is just that: an issue and plot-hole that the incompetent writer created and cannot be explained away at all.

Yep the title and even genres are a complete lie

5 nominations😍😍😍

haters must be fuming right now🤣🤣🤣

I would suggest watching it after a very tooth-rotting fluffy happy rom-com.

exactly

It's not that kind of drama, the drama follows several characters story and all of those stories are quite raw and sad, so it can't really be measured by the rom-com standards of happy/sad ending. but overall I would say it's a very sad drama that is gonna make you cry, but it's so fucking good, so if you're in the mood to cry then I highly recommend it.

I felt the same, they did a great job when it came to the friendship aspect of the drama but they majorly failed when it came to the friend to lovers trope. and these two actors are quite great so they could have manifested some chemistry if given a better script but unfortunately the script they were given massively failed when it came to the romance aspect of the drama.

well we can't really stop Kdrama writers unnecessary need for annoying SMLs, good thing here was that he was never annoying, and he served his role in the script very well. alsoTaesang helped in establishing/showcasing the changes that Sol was making to the timeline.

Yeah, I'm a guy. but there are a lot KActors that I find attractive, he just isn't one of them, he always seems goofy to me.
